E.S. Savas comprehensively examines the evolution and implementation of former New York Mayor Rudolph W. Giulianis aggressive privatization program in the face of a city council generally hostile to privatization. Savas identifies, examines, evaluates, and documents all forms of privatization employed, including contracting, competitive sourcing, divestment, leases, vouchers, franchises, default, withdrawal, and voluntarism. He contrasts these efforts in New York with privatization in several other cities across the country, ranging from Indianapolis to Phoenix. After analyzing the costs and benefitsboth quantitative and qualitativeof New York's privatization program, Savas concludes that significant savings were achieved during Giulianis eight years in office.
